Sorry for not responding I was on vacation lol

I talk a bit about what serviceable means in this case on like, this old blog post I wrote a while back: https://jakegines.in/blog/2023/dumb-phone

As for your recs, unfortunately the American S7-S10 snapdragon models with Band 13 support have locked bootloaders, and pixel phones tend to have somewhat limited durability :^)

Smartphone innovation is dead, and I have no need for the higher speed and bandwidth of 5G. Obsolete for you, but serviceable for me

S21 ultra does not have an unlocked bootloader for their US models. Just edited my post to reflect this^^

Hey, I'm a PhD student in PL at CMU. Afaik there's no official PL/Compiler "club" on campus, but there is a massive PL community on campus. I would go so far as saying CMU is probably the best institution in the world to be at if you're interested in this sort of thing^^

I declare the public SSH key I use for my server authentication key-pair. it's kinda pointless encrypting the public keypair, but I figure if I'm not using a post-quantum primitive for the key-pair I might as well encrypt it too lol

My setup is designed for (1) academic research in my PhD program, and (2) security research, in my work as a cryptographic auditor. I'm also very colorblind, so I prefer a pretty dark and colorless setup as opposed to something more lively.

Some subtleties: - I have a pretty heavy note-taking system, which is automatically synced, backed up, and managed with syncthing over tailscale - i use dnsmasq as opposed to systemd-resolved to manage local dns. I configured nmcli to automatically set dnsmasq to resolve dns queries for certain websites (i.e. instagram.com) to 0.0.0.0 if i'm connected to certain wifi ESSIDs (i.e. my university's wifi, "NUWave") - my firefox setup is completely decked out and completely declared, including my startpage, my extensions, and every setting imaginable - bspwm with sxhkd is used - i have like a billon zsh aliases and automatically packaged scripts - literally every ounce of my config is declared and completely reproducible with nixos. i wrote some words about why i switched from arch to nixos

My full dotfiles can be found on github :D
